Feature Request - Full File/Folder Name Display On Website in Browser, Mobile Browser, & Mobile Apps
I love dropbox, but this issue has been an irritant for a long time.
Examples:
One of my files is named "20190531 Family Budget Development From Mint 2018 Data.xlsx", but it is displayed in my dropbox files as "20190531 Family B...nt 2018 Data.xlsx".
One of my folders is named "2019 May Mint Budget Development", but it is displayed in my dropbox files as "2019 May Mint Bu...et Development".
I have many files/folders with long and similar names, so displaying only partial names often makes it difficult for me to locate what I am looking for.
ADDED 11/01/2019: This issue occurs on Windows in Chrome and on Android in Chrome.

Hey there tamimd67 - how are you today?
Thanks for writing in, and for sharing your feedback on this with us; I'll be sure to pass your comments along to our dev team.
In the meantime, you can view the full name by tapping the icon for more options to the right of the file (or folder) name that will show you the full name, as well as other file (or folder) actions. This allows you to see the full name without leaving your current view.
I hope this information helps and please let me know if you have anything else to add or ask; I'll be more than happy to follow up.
EDIT: I also moved and merged your thread under this post as it echoes your feature request - make sure to upvote it!
